The press on both gases won't stay on the settings I set an the raise 10 psia when I am brazing..getting sputters, flame outs and soot build up in the tip.

Flame goes cold on me....just all kinds of BS.

I don't know what's good these days....any help PLEASE!

If you can find an old set of Linde regulators, buy them! Built like a brick outhouse and hold their settings.
I use Turbo Torch not the Cut Skill crap. But have always had problems with their regulators. They do warranty them for 3 years,I think??? Uniweld regulators the old ones anyway, were good. Don't know about the new ones.

I got the Smith Quickbraze setup a few months ago. The torch handle is very small and light, and it comes with a few different tips. I brazed a 2-5/8" ball valve easily with the included tips, so it can get pretty hot. Im sure it can do larger pipe if needed as well.
